VerifiedCommon questions
How long does laminectomy recovery take?
Many people return to light activities and desk work within a few weeks. Full recovery commonly takes two to three months, and longer if fusion was added.
Will a laminectomy fix my leg pain?
Laminectomy typically relieves leg symptoms caused by nerve compression, such as pain and numbness from stenosis. Back pain from arthritis may persist, so it is important to understand which symptoms the surgery targets.
Do I need a fusion with my laminectomy?
Not always. Fusion is typically added only when the spine is unstable or a significant amount of bone must be removed. Your surgeon will explain whether your anatomy calls for it.
